Travel Gear We Actually Use
These are the products that have made our trips better — tested on everything from Catalina Island camping to Italian countryside drives.
Camping & glamping
- Snorkel gear — Bringing your own saves a ton on island rentals. We love the full-face masks for kids.
- Dry bags — Essential for ferry rides and water activities.
- Collapsible water bottles — Pack flat, fill everywhere.
- Rolling duffel bags — Game-changer for ferry travel with gear.
- Lightweight sleeping bag liner — Perfect for glamping where bedding is basic.
Travel essentials
- Packing cubes — The single best packing upgrade we ever made.
- Portable power bank — Never run out of battery mid-itinerary.
- Universal travel adapter — A must for Europe trips.
- Dramamine — Our ferry/seasickness essential.
